Week 1 and 2 Journal

    Trying to make a minor in Computer Science, so i'm taking this course ------Csc165( Mathematical expression and reasoning for computer scientists). 
    In week 1, we study how to building sets in python. We distinguish all and any, questions such as all{x in S2 for x in S1} and any{x in S2 for x in S2}.This is not very complicated, but seems a little tricky to think. So use Venn diagram to help thinking.
   In week 2, we learned qualifiers and implications and how we use these symbols. There are exist and for all qualifiers. We learned implication,contrapositive and converse. In implication, there also has many "natural" language word that express this implication such as: If...then...;Whenever...;...is sufficient for...;...are enough for...;...without...;...requires...;...only if...;...unless....In all of these, only if is a tricky one, so just remember that the things after only if is always be result. One more thing about implication is that the only case this implication is False in (T -> F).
    Finally, There are conjunction, disjunction and negation. 
    In last two weeks, we studied many logic stuff. Since i'm a math major student. These stuff are kind of easy for me. But regarding the title of this course, i'm still afraid of if there will be many proof in this course.
    Ok, my first 165Slog.=v=
